ANOTHER PUBLICATION TELLS THE TRUTH ABOUT PRESIDENT TRUMP

…Omarosar was the latest to leave her position at the White House
 
USA TODAY’s editorial board makes their position against the president crystal clear.
 
The USA TODAY publication is a somewhat mundane daily newspaper.  But such as it is, it has seriously portrayed just how bad a president is Donald J. Trump.  This occurred when the USA TODAY editorial board recently published the following as their lead editorial:  "With his latest tweet, clearly implying that a United States senator would trade sexual favors for campaign cash, President Trump has shown he is not fit for the office." The editorial also reads: "Rock bottom is no impediment for a president who can always find room for a new low."
 
The reference here is to Trump's tweet this week in which he said that Democratic Senator, Kirsten Gillibrand of New York had been formerly "begging him” for campaign contributions not long ago "and that she would do ‘anything’ for receiving them," implying that she would have offered sex for his donations.
 
USA Today has never been known for its blistering opinions. That alone makes this paper's editorial board’s offering on President Donald Trump that much more offensive to the president.
 
Of course, when asked about the tweet, the White House Press Secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders insisted that only people with their minds "in the gutter" could possibly conclude that there was sexual innuendo in Trump’s tweet language.
 
Apparently, Ms. Sanders has never really listened to Trump’s comments on the Access Hollywood video, and she has ignored the fact that nineteen individual women have accused this president of sexual harassment and abuse.  Women that he says he didn’t even know nor had he ever met.  But there is proof-positive that this response is just one of the president’s many daily lies to the public.
 
USA Today’s editorial board has also not agreed with Trump’s statement that he “didn’t know any of his accusers”.
 
Even though this daily publication doesn’t usually go to these extremes on their editorial page, this was not the first time they have made their views on Trump's fitness for office known to their readers.
Before the 2016 election, the editorial board went against its long-standing tradition of not endorsing a candidate in presidential elections.  The then editorial was entitled "Trump is 'unfit for the presidency."  It wasn't so much an endorsement of Hillary Clinton as it was an anti-endorsement of Trump.  It read: "This year, the choice isn't between two capable major party nominees who happen to have significant ideological differences.  This year, one of the candidates -- Republican nominee Donald Trump -- is, by unanimous consensus of the Editorial Board, unfit for the presidency."
 
Trump will undoubtedly add the USA TODAY's editorial board to what he calls the “Fake Press” or to the list of biased liberal news media who hate the President.  He will also probably add that they and the “failingNEW YORK TIMES, and the “lying” WASHINGTON POST are all being blind to the everyday realities of the average American, and blah, blah, blah.
 
For a group of Republicans loyal to Trump, that rhetoric will probably work. But USA Today is very far from being a leftist operation. And the disdain from every word of the editorial board's condemning of the president is definitely searing.
 
But the following words at the end the editorial, are the real truth: "A president who shows such disrespect for the truth, for ethics, for the basic duties of the job and for decency toward others fails at the very essence of what has always made America great." (Yes, this is what made America great.)
 
To also support the fact that Donald Trump will probably go down in history as the worst ever American President, his administration has been losing its team members on a record level.  And I don’t mean the lower level White House individuals.  He has lost his Chief-of Staff, multiple Press Secretaries and Communications Directors, as well at his Senior Strategy Adviser and the Secretary of HHS, just to mention a few.  To date, it’s a record loss of well over 30 individuals that have left the Trump administration, just in his first year
 
One of the most recent losses was Omarosa Manigault. 
 
Omarosa was a former contestant on Trump’s “The Apprentice” reality TV show and after the election, Trump had made her the Director of African-American Outreach.  She had an office inside the White House and she is known for a commitment to Trump like no other supporter.
 
Here is what she stated on national TV after Trump had been elected:  “Every critic, every detractor, will have to bow down to President Trump.  It’s everyone who’s ever doubted Donald, whoever disagreed, whoever challenged him — it is the ultimate revenge to become the most powerful man in the universe.”
 
Too bad for Omarosa that what she had said, will probably go down in history as that of someone that had seriously “drank the Trump Kool-Aid”.  Whatever caused her to leave her White House role this week, she is officially still employed until January 20, 2018.
 
Well, at least it won’t be said that the Trump Administration was a boring administration.
